I didn't realiseyou got Irn Bru ads in England way back then
Did you get all the ones with the skinny kid with the ginger curly hair who could tie girders in knots and stuff? and the steamroller?

Ring vague bells...But Irn-Bru was still a fairly rare and exotic drink down in these parts back then.

Barrs lemonade is the best *FACT*. But you can't get it down here.

I've just been informed that there's a shop in Whitechapelthat specialises in soft drinks, and that you can get it there. They do Jolt too apparently, which is the best Cola in the universe. When you can get it.

my sister and Ispent our childhood looking in hedgerows and going round the neighbours for their bottles so we could take them to the sweetie shop.
And in my late teens when life was hard, we would save them all month so we could afford to go to the chippy for food in the week before payday : ) half-pizza supper - hurrah!
